How do I get the volume serial number for a drive? For example in the
cmd prompt issuing this:
C:\vol C:
Volume in drive C is LABEL
Volume Serial Number is -
Is the volume serial number wrapped by pywin32? I found the function
win32api.GetVolumeInformation, but it doesn't seem
only way I know how to do it is
import os
out = os.popen(dir SomethingThatDoesntExist)
print out

That's not the serial number of the drive- as assigned by the drive
manufacturer.
If you want the SN from the drive manufacturer, you will need to issue an
IOCTL ATA Passthrough command which sends the ATA Identify Device command
to the drive. Unless the Winapi has a wrapper for that

Thanks to all for your responses.
I tried both methods from each Tim. :)
Yes, actually, it does. The second item in the tuple it returns is
the
VSN as a 32-bit binary value.
Ahh, now I understand where I messed up, your code example enlightened
me.
WMI to the rescue?
code
import wmi
I've been enjoying a lot of the WMI examples posted on this mailing
list.
Does anyone know if WMI is ever fully or partially disabled by corporate
customers, eg. as a way to secure workstations?
I'm trying to figure out how confident one can be about assuming WMI
functionality will be available

I would expect quite the opposite. In corporate situations, WMI is
